Hey guys! Sorry for any confusion on the DSLR term. GH5 is a mirrorless camera -- I just have a bad habit or referring to that size and style of camera as the shorthand "DSLR". That's my bad. Sorry again for any confusion. -- Joey
You know, I dont have enough point of reference for autofocus systems in general to give an informed opinion of them. I use manual focus 98% of the time for my work, not due to performance lacking, but by necessity of the work that I do. I do use the autofocus for photos and it seems to work well with this camera, but I have heard people say that the software controlling the autofocus for the video modes don't work as well as other competitor cameras.
Just have to say I absolutely LOVED that walking and talking shot from the Chewie walk! I thought it may have been planned and shot with something else. Didn't even know that was something spontaneous and shot with the GH5! Great work!
I have no idea how Joey does it, I just watched a 20 minute video comparing 2 things I have no interest in owning. A really compelling video, and a plug for his other work which I'm excited about too.
Always love a good Joey video! Although I'm a bit married to Sony cameras atm, I always learn something valuable from these, especially since I'm more of an editor and know less about the tech behind the cameras themselves 😊
Thanks for the review. I really liked that you didn't recommend one or the other but stated reasons why I would pick one over the other. That was really helpful in making my decision.
Thanks for this video. I bought the GH5s and i love it. I have all Canon glass and this has made me confident that getting some Lumix glass is a great option.
What lens did you use with the GH5 to shoot the main direct-to-camera discussion portions? The bokeh looks great and it's always been hard for me to get shallow depth of field with micro-four-thirds cameras.
A very solid review. I like the GH5 so much, it's still a beast of a camera in 2020. Earlier this year I also purchased the GH5s, and together I can cover everything. I don't think I will ever upgrade or be tempted to, I haven't even used them to their full potential either. Slid stuff
Is there a chance you could do a short video on rendering? How to deal with compression etc, that comes with uploading to sites like youtube, and also in general how to optimize to achieve better quality. Because these videos look amazing.
Detailed and informative review. Great. Ignore the haters: you make your living doing photography and videography and I appreciate your insights and perspective, regardless of your vocabulary.
Great review mate Im in the market for one of these cameras picking which one has been difficult I think your review has made my mind up to go with the DH5 I could use a stabiliser with the GH5S but things then become bulky and long set up time which I want to avoid Thanks
Hey good sir. Very well made video - I have a question: when you say "you won't get as good image in high ISO, low light situations"... What is the max ISO you would use when in V-Log on the GH5? Just asking because I'm actually coming from the GH5s, to the GH5 and I'm having to learn all these new limitations...I LOVE the GH5s.
Glad to hear you're not afraid to use the GH5 at 3200 ISO. I shoot there all the time and find it completely fine, but I always hear people claim they'll never go over 800 and how horrible it gets after that. Of course that's dependent on the situation, but I think the camera is generally very usable up to 3200. Then again, I don't require or care about squeaky clean images.
Does the GH5 overheats while shooting videos longer than 1 hour? Which zoom lens would you recommend for shooting indoor / low lights events where u need both wide and long range zoom?
Thanks for the review Joey! Are you still shooting with the FS5 for production? Mixing the FS5 and GH5/GH5s on shoots? How are you finding the matchup in post with the FS5 and GH5/GH5s?
I'm about to buy the GH5 S... just wondering how sharp this camera's 4K video is? Some say it is soft and not so good. I'd hate to waste such a lot of money and do not get super sharp video images. Can you help me out - how sharp is it?
Great video Joey. I was wondering if you'd noticed any judder when panning? I've seen it on quite a few clips from the GH5s but didn't on the ones you posted here from the GH5s but it was definitely there on the shots from your GH5..
I've had 2x GH5 in my collection for a couple of years and I've just bought a GH5S for low light purpose as I'm sick of the rendering time with noise reduction plugins. It's going to sit on my Ronin SC so I'm not worried about IBIS. The camera I pull out of the case is going to be determined by the light situation and that should be your deciding factor at the camera shop.
Great video! Which of these cameras is best for shooting a yoga video. I plan to set the camera on a tripod and shoot myself and one other person doing the poses in a pretty small space. Any input on what lens would be best would be helpful too! I have never owned a camera......soooooo I know nothing! Thanks!
A few phones have sensor shift stabilization apparently. Quite an interesting subject. I didn't know almost all phones featuring OIS were just lens based
Question: Have you tried GH5 with a non-panasonic lens which also has its own stabilizer built-in, such as a Canon lens? and if so, will GH5 IBIS work with this Canon lens' own stabilizer and they become dual stabilized? Thanks a lot.
What settings are you using on the GH5 when setting the ISO to 3200? Personally, I would never put the ISO above 800 on the GH5 -- 1600 was borderline trash (even after some noise removal in post) when I was shooting at UHD 4K/24.
Hey Adam did you see a massive difference in the colors? The GH5 is said to lean heavily to the greens and the GH5S more to the magentas which is better for skin tones. Trying to decide If I should have A GH5 and a GH5s or just two GH5s? To give you some context I shoot mostly weddings.
From a wedding videographer's perspective. I've shot with the gh5 for a year. I constantly run into low light issues on my 12-35 f2.8. I still want the versatility of the 12-35 and a lightweight setup since i'm always on a gimbal. (So no metabone + 18-35) The Gh5s has a 1.9x crop factor and low light capabilities. The only instance where the gh5 would be great for me is convenience. (Not having to setup gimbal just to grab some pan detail shots.) In a way, the GH5s is still kind of a run and gun if you pop it on a zhiyun crane. It's light enough to keep on the gimbal the entire day. That would be my reasoning to grab the GH5s.
Hey Joey, do you recommend the Panasonic GH5 or the Sony a6500 (you featured in another review)? I am mostly doing still shooting, but will need video capability from time to time. An unbiased review would be appreciated. Thanks in advance!
Joey! Awesome video! I got us a GH5 at such a good price a few weeks ago. I would love to know if you're shooting 10bit and if you're transcoding or just going 8-bit for the more friendly Premiere editing? Or have you got those 10bit files working well in Premiere?
Hi Joey, Did you notice the VFR bug with the GH5S? All of the VFR footage above 60fps has this ugly horizontal noise that, in my opinion, makes the image unusable. Even my footage shot at 24P/10-bit has unpleasant digital noise . These huge flaws are being discussed on the GH5/5S FB group, but I'm surprised that they aren't being mentioned in review videos. For me, it's a deal breaker!
Hey, Love you videos. I use Gh5 and GH5s and Synology too. I actually built a Synology network between 4 offices in 3 states and Russia. Your input is very helpful. Can you please put all your videos into a "Joey" playlist so I can watch everything you've ever done?
If i use a gimbal does that make IBS unnecesary? I'm thinking about either buying a GH5 or a GH5s and leaning towards the GH5s but am a little nervous about it lacking the IBS, even though im getting a gimbal aswell. I hope you can help me out!
I own both of these cameras. They both have advantages and pair quite well together. The GH5S works like two different sensors. An ISO 800 and 5000 in Vlog. In some cases, you may be at 5000 ISO with NDs. But It also has a 1.86X Crop Vs the 2X. With a Metabones SB XL, you have a 1.18X to full-frame. I also use the Anamorphic modes. The 6K is nice to have on the GH5 too. They're both quite good. And I have to agree. Buy the GH5s If you plan to make films and have time to plan the shots. IBIS is too useful to be without.
Assuming you can afford both, do you think that it is worth owning the GH5 and GH5S? I shoot docs with a lot of spontaneous mobility but also with the opportunity for planned shooting for B roll.
Great review Joey - I'm right in the midst of the GH5{,s} decision right now and this hit the spot. I have a stack of mft lenses that I want to keep using. I have an unrelated question though: what frames are those you're wearing? I need new eyeglasses and those frames look just right!
GH5s has an overall cleaner video as compared to GH5. Considering this, do you think that GH5s can be more flexible in V-Log L and so can show more latitude to pull in color grading?
Joey, John is my name from Brisbane Australia, LOVED this video great explanation for new users of the gh5, Thank you so much. A couple of questions to you if I may. What lens and what iso did you use for this vlog? I guess you are a manual shooter and that you just set your focus and iso then just keep an eye on the distance between you and the subject? Lenses I have are Panasonic 12 - 35 and 14 - 24 Nikon 50mm prime Tamrom 24 -70 Tokina 80-200 Olympus 17mm 1.8 and Olympus 45mm 1.8 haven’t use all of these as yet but I don’t think I need to many more I shoot a lot of company product videos outdoors and inside the products. Video and audio using a Tascam DR 600 Mark 2 So some handheld and off a tripod and just purchased a gymbal have done some trials with it nice flowing stuff but need to keep an eye on focus. Maybe use auto focus with the gymbal what are your thoughts re focus with a gymbal?
I think the crop factor for the GH5S is something like 1.8x right? I know people get really worked up about crop factor for some reason, even though pro Super 35 cams are all 1.6-1.8x crop anyway compared to full frame still 35mm.
I always have the feeling that the skintones and overall color science on the gh5s is superior to the gh5. Do you find that to be true and have they improved the gh5 in that regard with recent firmware updates?
GH5 = have Stabilizer, cant record good in low light. GH5s = No Stabilizer, Can record low light. GH5s with Stabilizer Lense = problem fixed abit, but then again you can get Ronin-s. I pick GH5s with Stabilizer Lense and Ronin S.
Sam KIA I ran a A7sII for a long time, I now run a standard GH5. One thing I will say about the low light between them is this: out of the box, the Sony is more sensitive, yes. However, when you add a speed booster to the mix, as the majority of us eventually do, the differences almost go away (almost). And the biggest factor... that GH5s IMAGE QUALITY. For me, I was so hyped to get better colors and skin tones when I switched from Sony to Panasonic with the GH5, but the GH5s improves in this area even more. Like quite a bit. It’s the closest mirrorless camera with image color similar to a higher end cinema camera like a Red that I’ve ever seen. And with the massive data and bitrate superiority that the GH5/s has over any of the Sony mirrorless camera codecs, the pixel quality is just plain better. Noticeably. From what I’ve seen, i believe the GH5s and the BM Pocket 4K share either similar sensors, or the same sensors, which is cool too. Maybe some engineers can do like a Magic Lantern type thing for the GH5s and get it to shoot 4K raw in short/medium length bursts. Never know...🧐
@@matrodmedia You shoot with a GH5 but you think the GH5s is still a better camera? Nowadays, full frame mirrorless camera's get a lot more coverage than MFT mirrorless it seems (Panasonic Lumix S1H, Sony A7III and expected A7S III, Nikon Z series). Do you think staying with MFT is future proof to invest in 2019 or should you wait a bit longer and invest in Mirrorless Full Frame camera's since they have better features (like 6K in the S1H albeit more expensive ofcourse).
My favorite part is at 1:25 where the Panasonic body electrocutes him and he doesn't let go because the camera is sweet and he doesn't want it to run away and marry a bar singer.
@@TheFilmmakingChannel I run a small scale business providing both film and photography. I've been using a GH4 for 4 years and done very well with both.
Warden Gaming Yes. They are capable cameras just not the absolute best for photography in my opinion. But of course the demands of your business most likely justify something like a GH4.
@@WardenmediaGames I still shoot with the Panasonic GH4 and I didn't feel the pressure to upgrade to GH5 until recently where I did shoot in low light more. I am thinking about upgrading to the GH5s but I am not sure whether it's a smart move (since the Sony A7III is better in low light already at a similar price and better continue AF).
Is it possible for Panasonic to make a camera that has all of the features that both of these cameras have? I don't care if it is a little bigger to fit everything inside, maybe they could just use the S1 body to fit everything.......Hopefully GH6 is a combination of these cameras, with new upgrades.......fingers crossed........

Thanks for the review. I really liked that you didn't recommend one or the other but stated reasons why I would pick one over the other. That was really helpful in making my decision.
Great review and comparison. The most impressive part is that you still having your camera after using that in Sao Paulo's streets :)
Thanks for this video. I bought the GH5s and i love it. I have all Canon glass and this has made me confident that getting some Lumix glass is a great option.
Never let Joey go. He makes tested in my opinion.

I rarely shoot handheld. i use a zhiyun crane 2. with that being said, would you recommend the Gh5s
THANKS! I've been struggling with this decision. I'm good now.
Great review and seriously useful info.
Great review mate
Im in the market for one of these cameras picking which one has been difficult
I think your review has made my mind up to go with the DH5
I could use a stabiliser with the GH5S but things then become bulky and long set up time which I want to avoid
Thanks
Very helpful comparison, thank you!
Awesome summary Joey from a guy that clearly loves to shoot. Thanks.
Great video. My choice was the GH5s which I purchased in 2018
I'd love to see you test and review the new BlackMagic Pocket 4K and how it fares against the GH5 and competitors
Nice VJO. I'm thinking about buying a good camera like this. Thanks!
Love your gear videos

Great video! I work with video and photos. I own a GH3. I’ve been struggling between the GH5 & 5s. The GH5 is my choice. Thanks!
I love how your studio footage glows. Are you using a Pro Mist or something similar? It looks magical.
Does the GH5 overheats while shooting videos longer than 1 hour? Which zoom lens would you recommend for shooting indoor / low lights events where u need both wide and long range zoom?
Are you using any filters on your footage (promist or stocking?), the blown out highlights are handled really well.
Thanks for the review Joey! Are you still shooting with the FS5 for production? Mixing the FS5 and GH5/GH5s on shoots? How are you finding the matchup in post with the FS5 and GH5/GH5s?
Just one question here. Did you also use Quasar Science lights for lighting up yourself in this video?
I'm about to buy the GH5 S... just wondering how sharp this camera's 4K video is? Some say it is soft and not so good. I'd hate to waste such a lot of money and do not get super sharp video images. Can you help me out - how sharp is it?
I love videographers that do the work talk shop. Good video. GH5 is still a great workhorse that I use professionally as well.
Great video Joey. I was wondering if you'd noticed any judder when panning? I've seen it on quite a few clips from the GH5s but didn't on the ones you posted here from the GH5s but it was definitely there on the shots from your GH5..
When shooting a music video which is better? Honestly I'm stuck and I need help on this decision
I've had 2x GH5 in my collection for a couple of years and I've just bought a GH5S for low light purpose as I'm sick of the rendering time with noise reduction plugins.

The camera I pull out of the case is going to be determined by the light situation and that should be your deciding factor at the camera shop.
Thanks for the comparison, Joey. One question - what pieces did you use to build your shoulder rig (in video around 15:00)?
Great video Joey! One question; on the GH-5s can you still set the Synchro Scan all the way up to 360? Typically it's default is 180. Thanks

@@RotterStudios report back how you like it man! Im thinking of getting a g85 just such a good deal it seems
Joey do u still feel the same way since the BMPC4k and 6k or out?
I own both of these cameras. They both have advantages and pair quite well together. The GH5S works like two different sensors. An ISO 800 and 5000 in Vlog. In some cases, you may be at 5000 ISO with NDs. But It also has a 1.86X Crop Vs the 2X. With a Metabones SB XL, you have a 1.18X to full-frame. I also use the Anamorphic modes.

Best comment I've seen here. Agree 100%. Currently I own both, but I am about to sell my GH5. But both fit different needs.
Assuming you can afford both, do you think that it is worth owning the GH5 and GH5S? I shoot docs with a lot of spontaneous mobility but also with the opportunity for planned shooting for B roll.
This sounds funny, but really digging the color grading of the ostrich / bird @ 8:46. If you don't mind me asking, did you use a lut ?
I have the same exact rips on the grip under the shutter button
Well done!
As a person that does not have a phone with two lensen under each other, what is the difference?

Great video. GH5 and combine a7iii for Low light.

Do you ever use the WIFI capabilities of these cameras? If so, how do you like to use the remote phone or tablet and in what situations?
what lens did you shoot this video with?
If you are also a photographer the GH5 is a 20 megpix sensor while the GH5s only a 10 megpix sensor. Super important for me.
This one comment completely solved my query - thank you so much.
Neither of these cameras are good for photography. Get a full frame camera for that.
@@TheFilmmakingChannel I run a small scale business providing both film and photography. I've been using a GH4 for 4 years and done very well with both.
Warden Gaming Yes. They are capable cameras just not the absolute best for photography in my opinion. But of course the demands of your business most likely justify something like a GH4.
@@WardenmediaGames I still shoot with the Panasonic GH4 and I didn't feel the pressure to upgrade to GH5 until recently where I did shoot in low light more. I am thinking about upgrading to the GH5s but I am not sure whether it's a smart move (since the Sony A7III is better in low light already at a similar price and better continue AF).
In 2019 you can get a new gh5 for $1300 brand new. Huge bang for buck at an amazing performance
What is this video filmed with?
1:23 - Hey hey hey, calm down man!! That's like shaking a baby!
Where is this channel from Brazil and Cuba?
Is it possible for Panasonic to make a camera that has all of the features that both of these cameras have? I don't care if it is a little bigger to fit everything inside, maybe they could just use the S1 body to fit everything.......Hopefully GH6 is a combination of these cameras, with new upgrades.......fingers crossed........
I feel like, in retrospect (post April 10th) you almost can't mention the GH5s without mentioning the BMPCC 4k annoucement.
you could compare to Blackmagic Design cameras, which are much cheaper and people say they have much more functions and quality ....
DSLR stands for Delicious Super Lovely Recording - so actually you are correct Joey.
Get a new BMPCC 4K!!You'll love it!!
